(edited for rambling)

In summary:
Working on stuff, being stupid, cutting off thumbtip, blah blah woof woof...
lengthy trip to the hospital, a few stitches, a tetanus shot, and a chicken pot-pie later, everything's going to be just fine. No lasting damage (except for another reminder-scar on that thumb, you think the first one would have done it but NOOOOO).
Have to keep it cleaned and bandaged for a couple weeks to let it heal and it should be good and not have any loss of feeling (yay). But that means I really can't work on any crafts for that time, so I guess I won't be posting much new art save for a drawing here and there for a while.

The moral:
Don't cut corners, use the right tool, etc. etc.

The update:
Doesn't hurt unless I forget and try to pick something up with that hand. The tetanus shot is actually a lot worse than the injury...
The stitches come out in 10 days. Whoohoo.
